| Abstract | The sex-role attitudes of 910 once-married females, aged 40-44, were examined to ascertain their support for traditional as opposed to modern sex-role orientations. In addition, 5 variables (education, employment status, residence, age at marriage, and number of children) hypothesized to influence these attitudes were tested by analysis of variance for the statistical significance of the observed relationships. The subjects had participated in a 25 year longitudinal study of a cohort of people from nonmetropolitan areas in Pennsylvania. Data for the present study were obtained in 1971 by personal interviews and self-administered questionnaires. The 2 categories of items were: 1) attitudes toward work and employment; and 2) aspects of sex-role stereotyping. Findings show little support for either traditional sex-role attitudes or for the modern, equalitarian model. Instead, there was considerable ambivalence and ambiguity in these women's sex-role attitudes. Education was clearly the most important correlate of modern sex-role attitudes. Similarly, employed women and urban women had more modern attitudes than unemployed and rural women, although the effects of these variables were somewhat less than that of education. The 2 indicators of role-traditional living, age at marriage, and number of children, were largely unrelated to attitudinal dimensions. Findings are in tabular form. (Author/NQ) |
